This state-of-the-art guide, prepared by the Technical Staff of Philips International, is a summary of compact disc-interactive (CD-I) knowledge.

CD-I, a joint development of Sony and Philips, builds on the success of audio compact disc technology to combine high-quality video images and full-color animation with sound, text, and database software for a truly multi media system. Based on an internationally recognized standard developed by Matsushita, CD-I systems can be designed using upgraded audio CD players or purpose-built CD-I players.

Here you will find detailed information on the CD-I technology and software that forms the foundation of a new multi-media industry. The many applications and techniques of CD-I as well as the basics of CD-I disc design are fully explained. Included in this authoritative source are seven information-packed sections devoted to:

■ Multimedia and interactivity

■ Pre-design questions

■ Electronic publishing and optical disc

■ Design considerations technology

■ CD-I examples and hypothetical projects

■ The audio visual palette

■ An in-depth look inside the technology

A useful appendix covers CD-RTOS and InVision, a glossary explains key words and concepts, and a comprehensive index lists all references to important words and phrases.

This book was edited by the Technical Staff of Philips International, who developed CD-I technology with Sony. Itis a summary of knowledge on CD-I, taken from the many sources within the Philips company, as well as its associated companies throughout the world.
